After the lake effect band dumped a record amount across northeast CNY, it returned to a more usual location over Syracuse. It was time for places like Labrador and Song to get some of the snow. I had been traveling for work while the snow fell so I was feeling some real FOMO. On Friday I...

Everything was lined up last weekend for a great lake effect system to come through the tug hill and central ADK's. After getting the freshies on Saturday with @Evan and @Harvey at Snow Ridge we set our eyes on Old Forge. Our newest forum member @Evan and I arrived about half an hour before...

I got a pair of armada ar7s and marker squier 11 bindings for 250. Everything is brand new and still wrapped. I know the skis are a little old but did I get a good deal?

We all know that one tree at our favorite resort covered in lingerie and Mardi gras beads. Unfortunately over the last few years I've seen them disappear. I just watched as a ski patrolman pulled a lone bra out of a tree on his way up the chairlift. I feel like it's the end of an era.... For...

Spent the holidays abroad in Poland but needed to get a few turns in. We drove about 4 hours south to the Czeck Republics biggest Ski Resort Cerna Hora. The resort is actually a few slopes and lifts spread around the valley with a single gondola, a few quads and plenty of surface lifts. The...

Made sure to sneak out of work a little early last Wednesday to get first chair at 4. Just a classic Woods night, with 6 to 8 inches of fresh snow. Was able to take a couple laps through the glades before it go dark. Woods has done an awesome job of maintaining these glades and opening them up...

Ok after a little low tide riding on Thursday, I need advice on making a base repair. I've done all my own repairs in the past but I'm not sure how to approach this damage. Usually when I have damage, I can cut the gouge clean and decide whether it needs to be filled in. I'm not majorly...

If you know me I call home base Woods Valley in Westernville NY. The little mountain is only 15 minutes from work so I usually get up for night skiing and slow weekends. I swung by yesterday to pick up my pass and was able to tour the renovation. Since the mountain was repurchased by the Woods...
